2013 Ford Focus 1.6L Petrol · MM62 HSJ

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a consistent history of clean passes. The most recent test on 17 November 2025 at 76,521 miles resulted in a pass with no recorded defects, following a failure just six days prior on 11 November 2025 at 76,154 miles. This specific failure with no recorded defects suggests an administrative error or a minor sensorrelated issue that was rectified immediately, rather than a systemic mechanical failure. Since October 2022, the car has maintained a perfect record without any advisory notices issued. The mileage pattern is notably low for a thirteen-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 5,900 miles per annum. Between October 2022 at 48,609 miles and November 2024 at 58,390 miles, the car covered under 10,000 miles, indicating light usage. The more recent jump of 18,131 miles over the final year represents a significant increase in usage frequency. While the low annual mileage generally reduces the wear on the drivetrain and engine components, it also increases the risk of age-related degradation in rubber-based components and fluid chemistry due to periods of inactivity. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on components that suffer from time rather than just distance. Check the condition of the suspension bushes and coil springs for cracking or fatigue, as these often perish on low-mileage cars. Given the age of the vehicle, an inspection for corrosion on the sills and rear subframe is essential, as Ford Focus models of this era are prone to rust over time regardless of mileage. Additionally, verify the brake system for seized calipers or pitted discs, as low-use vehicles that sit for long periods frequently develop surface rust on the braking hardware.
